“If you think of patriarchy as a legal system, it was a legal system that did not believe in gender equality and in fact had gender inequality as a foundational feature, meaning women have no rights.”
Welcome to 15 Minutes of Feminism, part of our “On the Issues with Michele Goodwin” at Ms. Magazine platform. As you know we are a show that reports, rebels, and we tell it just like it is, and we count 15 minutes in feminist terms. So, we jump right in with our guest on this show, and I couldn’t be more pleased to welcome back a friend of our show. That is Doctor Julie Suk.
Not just the violence that women put up with but also the work that women put to the benefit of all that goes under compensated and under valued and ignored.
This is something that’s been really important in a lot of other countries, making sure that women have gender parity in Parliaments or on corporate boards and this is an idea that we actually struggle with a lot under our own legal guarantee of equality in the United States. Once you have a rule like there’s one that was adopted in California that says that you have need to have at least one woman on a corporate board of directors. You need to have equal representation.
And a question that you ask in the book is if misogyny is not hatred of women, then what is it, right? So, can you unpack that a little bit and then we can talk about this bricks and mortar. Absolutely. So, misogyny is not only hatred of women but the systematic undervaluing of women and not just undervaluing but undervaluing in ways that benefit everyone else and particularly a society controlled by men.
These are developments you see in other countries, not just because other countries have worked out constitutionally reconciling gender quotas requiring equal representation, balanced representation of the genders in positions of power like legislatures. So, there has been developments since the 1990s in many European countries and Latin American countries and Asian countries towards balanced representation positions of power.
